Chapter 61

61. Two families have dinner together

After Lin Qingxi gave Xie Lu the opportunity to add the firewood, she went to the coal stove to get busy. She asked Aunt Sun to take a piece of five kilograms of pork belly and cut it into pieces, asked Zhou Mingmin to wash the cabbage and radish, picked up three ribs and chop them into pieces, then took out a large pot of clay pot from the corner of the kitchen, poured it into seven parts of cold water, and placed it directly on the coal stove.

Then, Lin Qingxi put the cut ribs into pieces into the clay pot, cut Zhou Mingmin's washed white radish into pieces and put them into the clay pot, and then started to make soup.

"Auntie, we will eat these meats ourselves at night. You can help me cut some meat as big as a palm to see how many tables there will be tomorrow, and then marinate them with grain, oil and salt. Sister, please help me get some bundles of vegetables from that jar, and use hot water to dry them. Wash them and chop them up later. Make a plum vegetable pork tomorrow, and kill a few fish in the water tank later. I will fry them later. I will make braised pork tomorrow, and then take three smoked rabbits from the cellar, add some potatoes and stir-fry them again.

Lin Qingxi was doing it while talking, mainly because she wanted to win the advice of Aunt Sun. She was worried that she would do it well, and she was afraid that Aunt Sun would dislike her own actions.

"Okay, listen to you," Aunt Sun smiled. It was obvious that Lin Qingxi's familiarity and self-righteousness did not arouse Aunt Sun's disgust, but instead made Aunt Sun even more happy. This shows that Lin Qingxi is really dating her boy.

"Auntie doesn't blame me for being troubled," Lin Qingxi was also very happy when she heard Aunt Sun's words. What does it mean to be a man of the future family attaches importance to her?

It means they are very satisfied with themselves! How can this make her unhappy?

Everyone in the kitchen works neatly, including the youngest Xie Lu, who is also very good at burning fires, and the four of them cooperate very well.

Gradually, the fragrance in the two large iron pots became more and more intense, and the aroma of ribs and radish in the clay pot also filled the kitchen with the aroma of braised food, which made Jin Dahua and others who came from home to help couldn't help swallowing.

"Xi girl, what is it so delicious to eat?" Jin Dahua couldn't help but ask as she smelled the fragrance.

"Big Girl, little Girl, you are here. I'm braised with pig heads and pig intestines and lungs. When the braised food is ready, I'll cut you a bowl and go back for my uncles and others to eat." Lin Qingxi had known that the two uncles and girls were both foodies, and she didn't surprise them asking this question.

"Okay, then we'll wait to eat," Jin Dahua was not polite. After a few years, they and Lin Qingxi had already been the same as their family. It was normal to eat and take it again.

"Okay, Sister Mingmin, you can take out the large intestine. You can take out the large intestine and cut it into sections. After the large intestine is cut, take out the slices. After the pig lungs are cut, soak them in brine. Then wash the iron pot and empty it. I want to make fried pork and fish," Lin Qingxi said while doing it.

"The fish has not been killed yet. Cuilan and I will kill the fish first. Yumei will cut the pig intestine. Chunli will help Xiyato, Chunxia will burn the fire and let Xiaolu go to the main hall to play," Jin Dahua did not treat herself as a guest. She took the initiative to find work, but also arranged work for others consciously.

As soon as Jin Dahua finished speaking, the others started to move consciously. Xie Lu, a child, was rushed to the main hall to play.

After the braised pig intestine and pig lungs were taken out, Lin Qingxi put the brine out and put it in a wooden barrel, then cleaned the pot, and then started frying the pork and then frying the fish.

Everyone was busy with their own hearts. In this cold winter, Lin Qingxi was sweating profusely, which shows how busy and tired she was.

After the buckle and fish were fried, Lin Qingxi put the excess hot oil into the pot of oil-filled oil and started cooking. She first made braised pork, and then made a braised fish because there were too many fish.

Then, Lin Qingxi steamed the white flour steamed buns, stir-fryed the braised pig intestine, stir-fry the cabbage, add some salt to the ribs and radish heads in the clay pot, and Jin Dahua and others brought the prepared dishes to the kang table in the main hall one after another.

For a moment, everyone was very busy.

"Everyone start eating! I've been busy all day today," Lin Qingxi said, taking the chopsticks to pick up a piece of braised pork for Zhou Daye and Zhou Jinshi, one by one, and put it in a bowl.

"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables," the two elders were extremely satisfied with eating the braised pork that Lin Qingxi picked up. The others were not polite and just picked up the food and started eating.

Zhou Mingmin picked up some of each dish for Xie Lu, scooped up a bowl of radish soup, each of them took a big steamed bun, and asked them to eat it next to them. The adults sat directly on the kang table and started eating.

While eating, we talked about tomorrow's treat. The main hall was very lively. After dinner, Lin Qingxi took Zhou Ming and Aunt Sun to the kitchen to work with gifts. Zhou Mingmin took a few big dragon bones and stewed them directly in a large iron pot outside. She also cut more than a dozen potatoes and radishes and threw them in to stew the soup together. The large iron pot inside was boiling hot water to wash dishes at night.

In addition to pig heads, Lin Qingxi also washed some potatoes, radish, tofu, mushrooms, soaked kelp knots, fungus and other vegetarian dishes into the brine and braised them in a small iron pot on the coal stove.

"Auntie Sun, just be careful to add some firewood. Sister Mingmin, you can cook the vegetarian dishes on the coal stove and then take a cup of tea. Don't worry about it. Just continue to soak it in the brine. I'll take a shower first and come back to you later."

In the kitchen, Lin Qingxi scooped the hot water from the iron pot into the wooden bucket. As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Mingbai came from the main hall.

"I understand boy, hurry up, girl Xi is going to wash dishes. You give her the hot water. Today I am tired. Let her take a hot bath and get tired," Aunt Sun ordered without hesitation when she saw her son.

"Okay," Zhou Mingdi said this and went to work. He lifted the hot water from the wooden bucket to the bathroom, then went to the kitchen to carry all the remaining hot water from the pot, and then poured two buckets of cold water from the well in the yard to mix it in. Lin Qingxi took the change of clothes and started taking a bath.

Lin Qingxi had just taken a bath here, but Zhou Mingdi was still busy. He took three or four buckets of water from the well and boiled it into the back pot. Others had to wash dishes later!

In the bathroom, Lin Qingxi was soaked in hot water, but she felt so comfortable. Her workload today was seriously exceeding the standard and she was busy and had never had a rest. She could have a rest now.

Lin Qingxi didn't soak for a long time. After the water temperature was almost cooled, she came out of the water, wiped the water dry, changed into clean clothes, put on socks and shoes before she walked out of the bathroom.

Lin Qingxi returned to the room, found a clean cotton cloth to wipe her hair, sucked the moisture from her hair almost, and then went to the kitchen to work with her hair. Fortunately, there was not much work left, so she didn't have to worry about her hair getting dirty.
